opinions on xbox stick

[nightstalker100]

hey all. was wondering what everyone thinks of the official xbox arcade stick. theyre cheap and im thinking of getting one for some general mame fun on pc (got an xbox-to-pc usb convertor). was hoping not to shellout on a streetfighter limited edition stick and am just looking for a basic stick, nothing too fancy.
its like the one on this auction

My mate has one and I would describe it as functional. It does the job but with no real flair, plus its quite lightweight and cheap feeling.

If all you want is a basic stick then go for it.

cheap and cheerful. Not bad but not great either.
